“Disclaimer: I received a pair of OOFOs OOlala Luxe Sandals to review as part of being a BibRave Pro. Learn more about becoming a BibRave Pro (ambassador), and check out BibRave.com to review, find, and write race reviews!”
I have had the opportunity to review the OOFOs shoes last year, and if you are interested in that review, you can click here.
OOFOs
First, as I am not new to the OOFOs brand, I 100% recommend their products. This review will be glowing because my feet are never happier than when they are in OOFOs.
I received the Jet Blue OOlala Luxe Sandal and I was so excited because I recently debated between the slides and the thongs and chose a pair of slides. When I went back to order the thongs, my size was out. So this was just FATE!
I will say I like the clogs if you plan to wear recovery socks, but my go to sandal has been this thong version!
It is perfect for Summer whether it’s post run/workout, going for walks, running errands or just stepping outside.
What is
I wanted to talk about the 3% that the company gives back from each purchase first, because any company that works with a good cause, is one I can also support!
Every purchase on OOFOS.com contributes to their goal of finding a cure for breast cancer. Duncan, the Brand Leader and Marketing Director was diagnosed with Stage Four Cancer in October of 2014. This was while she was just getting started with OOFOs in her roles.
With the support of my amazing husband, Tom, our four sons, and our family and friends, I began treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts. Over the past few years, there have been highs and lows. But through it all, I’ve made a commitment to myself. To enjoy the highs. Persevere through the lows. And prove that the human body has more endurance than anyone could imagine.
So with every purchase, 3% is donated to the Dana-Farber Breast Cancer Research team to support new medical breakthroughs with the potential to help patients, like Duncan, feel better.
Onto the
After the feel good feelings of the company and their cause and support, we will get to the feel good of the shoes themselves!
OOFOs have their OOfoam technology that absorbs 37% more impact than traditional footwear foam materials.
This helps to alleviate pain/stress on your feet and joints.
My favorite thing is the arch support. You know in regular sandals there is absolutely no support whatsoever. These cradle your feet and feel like they were made JUST FOR YOU!
7.6 miles. Last long run. It is still not real yet that I’m running my @runrocknroll Chicago half in ONE week!😬 So thankful for my long run buddies & thankful for my @oofos sandals for post long runs. How beautiful is this scenery?#rnrbr #oofosbr #bibchat #bibrave #bibravepro pic.twitter.com/LHfRwsrByb

When I told you all the first thing I like to do post run is to put on my @oofos, I wasn’t lying. I also take the dog out to potty after I run and before I go to work, so these are perfect to get in a stroll and free my feet!#oofosbr #bibrave #bibchat #bibravepro pic.twitter.com/7z46xXv3OE

Like I said, I LOVE my OOFOs. Also, love how easy they are to clean and they dry QUICKLY! If you get caught in the rain, no sweat, they will be dry quicker than other shoes.
I think the only negative I have come across is that people who have these for longer, the color may tend to chip away or crack. I haven’t had experience with this yet, but I’m not too rough on my shoes.
Other great points is that OOFOS are LATEX-FREE!
They are also extremely light and are made of non-toxic materials, even the paint.
They also come with a 6 month warranty!
